Step 3

Visually check the condition of the air filter to determine whether to clean it or
install a new replacement filter:

Dirty—You can either vacuum or replace the filter.

Caution

Do not vacuum the air filter while it is installed in the chassis. Before you clean
it, you must remove the air filter completely to prevent contaminants from being
drawn into the router.

Worn or torn—If the filter appears worn or torn, dispose of it in a responsible
manner and install a new replacement (12000/10-FILTER=).

Step 4

Slide the new or cleaned air filter into the air filter door (honey comb side down).

Step 5

Close the air filter door and tighten the captive screws (see

Figure 5-3

).

Caution

Align and seat the door carefully to avoid damaging the EMI-preventive gaskets
on the door. The air filter door must be closed and secured at all times to maintain
correct EMI performance.
